Things to think about for organisation:
----


==Invalid/Missing Links==
* Add pascal/ada/basic/whatever compilers?
Following links and their sub links appears to be broken.
* split compilers into realmode, pmode and longmode?
* [http://www.nondot.org/sabre/os/articles The Operating System Resource Center]
* Other architectures
* [http://www.int6.org int6.org - OS Development Resources Collection]
* [http://devnulled.ath.cx/~oslib The OsLib]
* [http://k101.f2g.net/ Kernel 101]


== Merging link pages ==
how about tagging each compiler with what architecture (subset) it supports
As discussed in [[Talk:Quick Links]], there are many pages with links to useful sites, and it would be useful to merge them into one page, here. Many of those are part of Category:Pages For Review.


The pages that are proposed for the merge are:
''- Combuster''
* [[Resources]]
* [[Quick Links]]
* [[Kernels With Source]]
* [[OSRC]]
* [[Specifications]]
* [[Links]]

A proposed layout of sections (each with the appropriate links):
* Operating System General
* Operating System Development
* Hardware Specifications
** Processors
** Motherboard Devices
** Human Input Devices
** Video
** Audio
** Network
** ...
* Software Specifications
* Other Specifications
* Sample Kernels

All comments are welcome (especially nods of approval :)

:No objections here. --Alboin



I completed merging the pages listed above. All links in specifications appeared to be duplicates of quick links, I located [[Miscellaneous Code]] which might be viable for a merge as well.
Pruned dead links:
* [http://www.cs.ucla.edu/~~kohler/class/aos-f04/ Advanced OS Development], includes 5 labs showing pmode, virtual memory, loading and running programs, etc. (UCLA)
* [http://www.kernelguys.org Kernelguys.org] Kernel related resources collection
* [http://www.clipx.net/ng/bios/ interrupts and POST variables list, an alternative to ralf brown's interrupt list]
* [http://www.hut.fi/~then/mytexts/mouse.html MS mouse protocol]
* [http://www.hut.fi/~then/mytexts/mouse.html how mice work in general]
* [http://my.execpc.com/~geezer/temp/serial.c serial mouse demo program]
* [http://warmaster.ath.cx/bkerndev/ bkerndev]
* [[Topic:8753|quick overview of what realtime Operating Systems are (really)]] (not really dead, but close enough)
Fixups or confirmations that these are unrecoverable might be welcome.
I invite people for a double-check and final comments before removing the original pages.

Deleted Quick links, kernels with source, osrc, specification and links. I have [[Talk:Resources/Merge Archive|archived]] their talkpages for future reference. I will update the main page's templates shortly. Thereafter, I think this is case closed. - [[User:Combuster|Combuster]] 16:18, 26 September 2007 (CDT)

Merging link pages

As discussed in Talk:Quick Links, there are many pages with links to useful sites, and it would be useful to merge them into one page, here. Many of those are part of Category:Pages For Review.
